Which of these scenarios fits your family best?
For birth doula support only: If you fall on the left-hand side, we recommend paying $1,800 to match the full value of the service you are receiving and to help others gain access to the same care. If you fall in the middle, we recommend paying $1,500 to create sustainability for our doulas. If you fall on the right-hand side, we recommend paying $1,200 as a way of entering into a professional relationship with your doula and ensuring they are paid as close to their regular rate as possible.
If in need of childbirth education, please indicate this on the custom plan application. We offer a limited number of pro bono slots in our hypnobirthing classes.
Standard payment schedule: 50% upon service booking and 50% due by 36th week of pregnancy
